The business side of film has goofed up so many things but even that's changing. It happened to the music industry and now it's happening to the film studios. It's crazy what's going on. But artists should have control of their work especially if as I always say you never turn down a good idea and never take a bad idea.

Government's role should be only to keep the playing field level and to work hand in hand with business on issues such as employment. But beyond this to as great an extent as possible it should get the hell out of the way.

I think all women in Hollywood are known as sex symbols. That's what our purpose is in this business. You're merchandised you're a product. You're sold and it's based on sex. But that's okay. I think women should be empowered by that not degraded.

It is not fit the public trusts should be lodged in the hands of any till they are first proved and found fit for the business they are to be entrusted with.

I also believe that government has no business telling us how we should live our lives. I think our lifestyle choices should be left up to us. What we do in our private lives is none of the government's business. That position rules out the Republican Party for me.

I don't think we should be about the business of denying voters in Michigan and Florida the right to be heard.

I don't think the government should be in the trailer-park business. I don't think they know how to run a trailer park.

But Apple really beats to a different drummer. I used to say that Apple should be the Sony of this business but in reality I think Apple should be the Apple of this business.

Girls shouldn't worry about being the equal of men in the business world.

It is clearly better that property should be private but the use of it common and the special business of the legislator is to create in men this benevolent disposition.

A man should never neglect his family for business.

A group or an artist shouldn't get his money until his boss gets his.
